Dr Barker took a lot of time. Everyone in the office was very nice and friendly (including the other patients).Very good experience. Highly recommend the office.
I have been going to audiologists for nearly 60 years and found the best ever. Dr. Mello is a rock star. She listened to my issues, gave a test, and made adjustments to the hearing aid so I can hear in different situations. As a result, this is the first time I have ever worn a hearing aid so consistently.Lastly, the customer service is prompt, friendly and professional. I can not all for anything more from a great group of people.
My experience went well above what I expected.I love Dr.Mello and her staff,they are very professional but at the same time very concern about their patients.I would highly recommend this office to my friends and family.Thank each one of you.
I am writing my first review 1 year after my initial visit. After going to other doctors offices and being told that my hearing was fine, I finally found an office that would help me with my hearing problems. It took one visit for testing and an initial fit for a hearing aid. I was treated very well by everyone at the office. They took a long time with me at my initial exam to dial in my concerns and give me options for my hearing problems. I can now hear just like normal. In the office, on the phone, at noisy places. I can hear! I feel like I have gotten my life back. I can offer my full endorsement for Raleigh Hearing and Tinnitus Center. This is a review one year later and I am very happy with this office.
I went in with muffled hearing in one ear, and came out with both ears feeling so much less congested and able to hear clearer out of both ears thanks to wax removal. Very friendly and professional staff, the office was clean and had a lot of space in the waiting area to feel comfortable waiting to be seen (even though the wait time was less than 5 minutes). After treatment, I was sent home with a product to help eliminate the need to come in for what I initially came in for. You can just tell that they really do care and want to help, and CAN help! Thank you all!
Dr. Barker did a great job of assessing my hearing issues and listened to my goals in formulating a solution. The result was great! Im enjoying listening to music more than ever. Like going from black & white TV to color!
Received the expected results. Doctor and staff were very competent and helpful.
My experience at Raleigh Hearing and Tinnitus Center has exceeded my expectations. Dr. Barker is very knowledgeable and specialized, and took the time to answer my many questions in a patient, empathetic manner. Everyone is very friendly and helpful, making the visits less stressful.I strongly recommend Raleigh Hearing and Tinnitus Center to friends and family.
Raleigh Hearing and Tinnitus Center is owned and operated by Dr. Sheri Mello. I have been a patient of hers for 20 years. There is a reason. Shes knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and truly interested in improving your quality of life. Oh, did I forget to say that shes always right on the money with my scheduled appointments? I never wait more than about 5 minutes!
Ive been going to Dr. Barker for several years and she has been wonderful in helping me find the best fit hearing aids for low frequency hearing loss, and also to help manage tinnitus. Dr. Barker has always been a strong advocate for hearing health and has been a source of strength, comfort and knowledge in my own personal journey with hearing loss. I was very happy to learn they now offer on-site testing for cochlear implant candidacy. Recently I met with Dr. Patz for my own cochlear implant candidacy testing, and Im really excited about the next steps with the surgery consultation. Dr. Patz has been another warm, friendly and helpful source of hope for my hearing journey. Im so happy to work with this team of knowledgeable, patient and caring doctors.
The staff were friendly, informative, and actually fun to work with while being professional. Testing was well explained. Interaction quickly analyzed my level of understanding, and therefore their instructions and explanations. Testing was customized for my needs. Results were conveyed in detail and a plan forward explained. One of my objectives for each professional visit is to learn something new. Mission accomplished. I have even recommended their Conversation vs. Background Noise Test to several of my friends.
The doctor explained everything about my tinitis so well and thoroughly that I was quite relieved. I left feeling really good about my visit. - Knowledgable, patient, and responsive.
I have had hearing aides, which I purchased from RHTC, since 2015. Whenever I needed an appointment for follow up or tweaking, the Center responded with immediate attention. The staff are very attentive and responsive to my situation and individual needs. The atmosphere is enjoyable and the staff are accommodating to deal with whatever hearing issue you are facing. They keep trying until they make it right. The center’s approach is,” how can we make you hear better?”. They are tuned into the latest technology and have an excellent choice of hearing aids. The Center’s continued service and support has greatly improved my quality of life.
Amazing experience, friendly and detail oriented. Will answer all questions and help you out with anything needed.
Very professional staff. Explained everything quite clearly and answered all my questions. Highly recommend them.
I had a great experience. I went in for a hearing evaluation. Dr Mello explained the procedures clearly, including what insurance covers and what it does not, and what would be helpful, versus what tests exist but I may not necessarily need to pay for; and also what to expect for each test. She provided me answers for what I had been experiencing, and also information for things I could do at home. I waited for my appointment 5 minutes of less. The office manager was friendly and helpful in scheduling my appointment. Highly recommend!
Have been a customer for several years. Customer service has been nothing less than outstanding. Never dissapointed.
My experiences at RHTC have been excellent. I needed an evaluation for hearing aids and tinnitus, and was nervous about the whole process. However, I was so glad I came there, even though I drive from Cary. Dr. Mello spent much time and effort setting me up for a loaner hearing aid to try out for 2 weeks. They seem to operate on the principle of whatever it takes to get perfection with my hearing. This was especially important because I have severe hearing loss and tinnitus. I interacted with all 3 audiologists (especially Dr. Barker) and they are all excellent. I also was surprised that my insurance is accepted for the hearing aids (not true at some other places) and their pricing is transparent and seems competitive. Even Lisa the office manager is a pleasure to deal with. I would give them 10 stars if I could.
The doctors and staff have done a great job of listening to my needs, responding both appropriately and competently. They create a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. I would refer anyone I know to them.
Very professional and pay great attention to detail. Attentive and willing to educate the patient about all options. Highly recommend!
This place is wonderful. I called to ask about helping me with my hearing aides. (One had taken a shower with me!) They were very helpful. Both hearing aides needed attention. They took care of them.. Saranne Barker was reassuring, and personable, and took care of my problems. I highly recommend Raleigh Hearing and Tinnitus Center
This was my first time formally going to have my hearing checked and my tinnitus assessed. Had a wonderful experience!
I highly recommend Raleigh Hearing and Tinnitus Center. They are polite, professional, and highly efficient. Plus, they are extremely kind and accommodating. Congratulations to all of the staff for doing an outstanding job!!
The audiologist was very knowledgeable and explained the various hearing aid options in a manner that helped me make my decision.
Totally professional and very caring. Dr. Barker is outstanding. She explains everything in easy to understand terms and answers all your questions. She is excellent with all the equipment for testing as well as the hearing aid fitting and tuning service. I highly recommend her. She is very special.
This center is amazing. They all are very helpful. Dr. Patz is very kind and deals with great patience. She provided the best advice and hearing aid suggestions. She is very positive and my wife had a great conversation with her.
Dr. Mello is so knowledgeable, professional, and personable. I would recommend her to anyone for their hearing needs!
Everyone here has been great and really nice to work with. Would recommend for sure.
Very professional and friendly team. They are top notch. I would highly recommend Raleigh Hearing and Tinnitus Center.
Great office, I have two hearing aids from them and they are great with maintaining them. Very friendly and courteous to me. I would recommend them to any body that needs help with hearing.Karl Simmons
For years I have been suffering with a hearing problem..Depending on the pitch of a persons voice; Ps,Ts, Vs, Sounded similar, Sometimes my friends, knowing that I had a hearing problem instead of facing me or talking loud enough so I could hear and understand what they were saying,,They would get annoyed because they had to repeat themselves. They didnt seem to realize that it wasnt any pleasure for me either,.Even though I was in a room full of people, it was a lot of buzzing broken by a word here and there.After awhile I would start to withdraw from socializing, Thanks to some good friends,They told me about Raleigh Hearing and Tinnitus. They have helped me to get my hearing back and to live a normal life. GOD BLESS THEM.
The receptionist and Doctor where great. If I have anymore hearing problems I would return to this great office.
Thank you for promptly sending a clear (and comfortable!) mask -- as a future AuD who also has hearing loss, your work in the community is greatly appreciated.
Your staff is amazing. My husband was fitted with hearing aids for the first time. He loves them and has not had any problems with them at all. The entire staff was very friendly and helpful. They even followed up to see how he was doing after a week. We will definitely recommend you to our friends and relatives. Even though we live in Florida we plan on driving back to your office for any follow ups. Thats how much we trust and depend on your expertise. Thank you for making our appointment with you such a pleasant experience.
In coming from an excellent audiologist in Virginia, I was a little nervous about what to expect. But, they have far exceeded my expectations. Awesome staff, very friendly, very personable and would strongly recommend them to anyone looking for excellent customer service and quality care. Theyve got my vote.
This is my provider of choice for any future needs regarding assistance in management of hearing issues. They do a thorough evaluation and then come up with treatment options which consider not only the physical findings but also the desires and needs of the patient and their family. The entire staff is awesome and extremely easy to work with. As a health care provider myself I recognize this as a top notch operation and am extremely grateful for their recent assistance. Cant think of how they could be any better.
Great experience with Dr. Barker. One of the things that I most resoected was that she said she didnt think I needed hearing aids yet, so I am waiting. A lot of places, at least I understand, try to sell you the hearing aids regardless, as it is a high profit item for them. Her thorough testing gave me a good baseline for future monitoring of my hearing condition and I have confidence that her recommendations are not clouded by financial motivations.
From beginning to end my experience was seamless and awesome. Terri, the rep, was enthusiastic,professional, compassionate yet personable. She did what she said she would do, the appointment was timely and the tech, Sara was full of information and listened to my concerns. In all, it was a great experience.
As soon as I walked into the office I was greeted and felt very welcome. The doctor was very educated and explained everything that she was doing in the procedure and what we would be doing. The doctor was thorough in the in the diagnosis. Could not have a better doctor to evaluate my hearing and the options that are out there to improve the hearing
Raleigh Hearing and Tinnitus Center absolutely deserve the above 5 stars and more. Unfortunately I didnt find Raleigh Hearing and Tinnitus Center until this my most recent Hearing Aid Purchase. I am age 93 and have purchased 6 sets prior. RH&TC have outstanding facilities, the absolutely best equipment and Staff to properly test your hearing. Your best chance for the PROPER hearing aid and no doubt support is to find your way to Raleigh Hearing and Tinnitus Center, 10010 Falls of Neuse Rd., and forget all the newspaper advertising and offers from others.
Dr. Mellow is a professional audiologist with extensive background in the hearing aide industry. Her training, experience and knowledge prepare her to address complex hearing problems with the best technology available. She represents many brands, so can recommend the product that best meets the needs of the patient. She is a good listener as she probes to diagnose hearing loss and the effects it has on quality of life. Though highly skilled and professional, she explains the technology and physiology understandably and makes excellent suggestions to address the issues. Patient satisfaction and excellent customer service are hallmarks of her practice.
I have been going to Dr. Mello for 12 years, ever since I started wearing hearing aids. I was impressed by not only her thoroughness, but the care and concern for her patients to diagnose exactly what would work best for each one of them. Over the years I have found that she is on the cutting edge of the newest technology and stays well-informed. I have the greatest confidence in her abilities as a doctor of audiology. I would highly recommend her to anyone who may feel they are experiencing hearing issues.
Very professional and informative visit. I had many questions and they were all answered to my satisfaction. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. My experience was very good.
The Raleigh Hearing and Tinnitus Center provides excellent care and service regarding hearing loss and Tinnitus. The hearing tests are intensive and individualized to ensure the proper treatment options. The overall staff caters to the needs of each client from check-in to check-out.Thank you Raleigh Hearing and Tinnitus Center for providing a dynamic solution just for me!
Wonderful, Impressive help from Dr. Barker. She is a very skilled professional. Couldn’t be better.
People at this Hearing Center are amazingly competent and courteous. I would advise anyone who has a hearing problem to visit first Dr. Saranne Barker before going anyway else. She is GOOD.
Very professional and helpful. Made sure I understood all the tests and options for different hearing aids. I always refer them to others looking into hearing issues.
Dr. Barker was very kind and spent a lot of time adjusting my hearing aids. I was very pleased and think she did a great job.
This is a marvelous practice. I have hearing loss in one ear from childhood and then a surgical correction from 30+ years ago that had lost its effectiveness. I had a prior hearing aid that was well out of date, and was thrilled to find the new hearing aids were more compact, more featured, integrate with my iPhone, and are much more comfortable. The advice about selection and use was excellent. Theres no pressure for sales, and no hidden fees. If you get a test and dont need a hearing aid, theres no worry that youll be pressured to get something you dont need as can happen with some storefront hearing centers. Id dealt with audiologists most of my life, and this is the best practice Ive ever encountered.
Everyone at this office is extremely helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. They are also very understanding that this is a large purchase as well as a tough decision (for a guy at least) because we often dont really want to admit that we need them. That being said, their low-pressure sales were great for me. And yes, my wife was right; I needed them...
Quality products and outstanding service. Staff are friendly, professional, and patient. The receiving unit on my hearing failed over the weekend. I walked in today without an appointment and explained the problem. They replaced the unit without charge. And I was in and out in 15 minutes.
I cant say enough good things about the entire office. From my coming in just to ask a question and received more information than I had expected...to my actual appointment with Dr.Mello. She took time to answer my questions, offered education and resources. I felt like I was important and respected. I am blessed to have found them and recommend them to everyone!!
I have been a patient of Dr. Sheri Mello for over 9 years. Over these years, I have always been given very meticulous and caring treatment. Dr. Mello has always had a patient first outlook and has given me excellent service. There were times I needed to see a specialist for cleaning, and they have treated me immediately. I have been to other audiologists and, by far, this office has the best treatment and care. I would highly recommend her for your hearing needs.
Dr. Barker was extremely helpful with my tinnitus. I highly recommend her and her staff. Staff was very welcoming and friendly.
Welcoming staff, Dr Saranne B. was knowledgeable, thorough, a great listener and gave my husband and I options for his new hearing aids. No waiting, we were taken in to see the Dr. within 5 minutes after we arrived.Great experience.Susan Raff
Great experience. Very prompt. Very knowledgeable. Very professional.
Great place, great staff and Dr. Barker was truly helpful,caring and attentive to my needs.,not to mention a friendly outgoing personality that put me at ease immediately.
I met with Dr. Barker today due to my tinnitus. Ive had it for years, but it has gotten much worse lately. Dr. Barker was very understanding, extremely helpful, and overall I had a fantastic experience at RHTC!
The hearing Dr Sarah was a very helpful and nice girl I would send someone else there
Dr. Barker was warm, encouraging, professional, and extremely helpful. I wouldnt hesitate to recommend her to anyone struggling with tinnitus. I feel like I finally have hope.
Your whole staff is top notch; from your receptionist and cashier to Dr. R. Barker.Dr. Barker is a professional hearing doctor, she was truly interested in being sure I was properly fitted with the aids and, especially, that I could hear as normal as possible. With people like this on your staff you cant go wrong.My thanks to all of them!Devohn Rhame
I was using Nano sound amplifiers for a year and although the technology is well adapted for those with mild hearing loss, they did not fulfill my needs. There was still too much background noise to fully hear all I needed to hear.I have enough hearing loss that I needed real hearing aids. I have worked with Sheri Mello before my last aids went missing. I am back and am so pleased to be having her and Raleigh Hearing and Tinnitus Center working with me again. Dr. Mello was thorough in determining my need, both medically and financially. They have a loaner program while you wait for permanent aids and a leasing program which offers office visit when needed. I am very pleased with helpful and cheerful people and the very clean facility.
Currently consulting with Raleigh Hearing and Tinnitus Center due to husbands tinnitus and lack of satisfaction with local ENT. We have found this group of women to be experienced, knowledgeable and informative in hearing disorders and various hearing aids. I would recommend them above my local ENT that husband has seen for the last 2+ years. Local ENT was quick to push meds and other medical procedures to possibly cure/manage tinnitus including steroid shots. Also, ENT sold only one brand of hearing aid and provided very poor on service, programming, and maintenance of hearing aids to maximize benefit of hearing aid expense. It is worth our 2+ hour drive to visit Raleigh Hearing and Tinnitus Center. I would definitely consult with Raleigh Hearing and Tinnitus Center before purchasing any hearing aids.
This is the only place I go to for my hearing aids. Ms Mallow is wonderful. She explained everything to me and when I left I could hear and I was a happy lady.
My husband has worn hearing aids for over 30 years and this was by far the most incredible process ever!!! Sheri Mello is te best Dr ever. Up on the newest technology, personable and professional ! Going anywhere else would be a waste of time.... This is THE place to get your hearing aids!!
Really great and easy experience. Dr Barker was fantastic, personable, and caring.
I highly recommend Raleigh Hearing and Tinnitus Center. Dr. Barker was amazing. She listened to my concerns and worked to find me the perfect aid for my hearing loss. She seems very passionate about her job and helping others.
I love this place. People are so friendly
Dr Barkan was amazing with my mom! She has tinnitus and thought it could never be fixed but one apt with dr Barkan helped her so much! Lisa at the front desk was very sweet and helpful! Extremely happy with their service!
I went to Raleigh Hearing to see if I could get my phonak hearing aids adjusted because I was displeased with their performance. I saw Dr. Saranne Barker who did a series of tests that I had never had done before. She was able to increase my ability to hear by 100% as well as tone down the squelching of the hearing aid. GREAT JOB Dr Barker!!!!!!!!!!!!
I felt that Dr.Barker and her staff were really interested in helping me solve my hearing issues
Dr. Barker did an outstanding job and was very helpful. She explained things very well and was very patient.
Friendly staff, informative doctors. Clean, pleasant waiting area and a place for young children to play while waiting.
WOW just WOW what a difference, allot of knowledge and some TLC can fix any hearing aid problems.Great people and very experienced and kind.
Dr Mello really took care of me and let me know the issues I am having with my hearing. I would recommend her office anytime!!
Friendly experienced staff, willing to assist in any way.
Dr. Mello and her team are my hearing aid family. Im 72 and been seeing Dr. Mello for 10 years and from the first appointment to my most recent of 5/16/20 my experience has been excellent! Dr. Mello is able and willing to go the extra step taking her time with me and fitting me in her schedule and working with the manufacture to get the best quality in hearing aids. As I get older things change and hearing is one of them and she is very patient always there to correct it and I continue to go on my way with a smile hearing what is going on in the world.Thank you Dr. Mello you kept me hearing my grandchildren they love it.
I could not be more pleased with our experience with The Raleigh hearing and Tiinitus Center. Dr. Mello is so patient, thorough and kind. The entire staff is very helpful and warm and the office is beautiful with new, high tech equipment.The audiogram provided was very comprehensive. I think this is a great test for teens or anyone who is a musician, attends a lot of concerts, uses, headphones, etc. It is great to have this baseline information. Dr. Mello also tests for sound sensitivity in addition to hearing loss and explains every step of the comprehensive testing in a way that is understandable to all. I highly recommend this practice to anyone looking for a hearing specialist.
Service and expertise are 2nd to none. I will be referring to my friends.
Very professional. Doctor Barker and Sara Pats are the very best.
Outstanding. Thank you.
Thank you Dr Barker for taking the time to call me. Communication is everything.
Very professional hearing evaluation and multiple hearing aid brands were offered. We feel most comfortable being cared for by the staff at Raleigh Hearing and Tinnitus Center.
Very professional..am handicapped and they did every thing they could to accommodate me... highly recommend them..
Was very impressed with my audiologist, Sheri Mello, who did an excellent job of explaining my hearing tests and providing practical recommendations afterwards.
Great staff. Will be returning!
Dr. Melo and all the staff always go above and beyond to meet my needs! They are all fantastic!
I am the owner of a pretty bad hearing loss in the higher frequencies that is difficult to correct. Apparently, in order to get the necessary power for me to hear, feedback through the hearing aids occurs and is a bear to work around... HOWEVER, due to the professional expertise of Dr. Sheri Mello, coupled with her true compassion to help her patients, I am hearing the best now that I have for several years. Dr. Mello has gone far beyond what is usual and customary care in my case and has worked very hard to find solutions that would help me to hear and understand better. People who do not have a hearing loss think they are helping when they speak more loudly. Unfortunately, at least for me, it isnt a volume issue, it is an understanding issue. Sheer volume doesnt necessarily help.Because Dr. Mello has experience from both the manufacturer and patient perspectives, she is well versed on available technology, and understands how to best utilize that technology to work best for her patients. There are many options available today for people with hearing loss to hear better. There are advertisements in the newspapers almost on a daily basis. There are also options at big box stores who have gone into the hearing aid market because there IS a market. BUT, in my experience, there is a lot more than just price to consider. Big box stores and others DONT always offer the best technology that is available in a practice, and they CANT offer the expertise and compassion that Dr. Mello does on a daily basis. There is an old saying that you get what you pay for. In the case of Dr. Mello and Physicians Hearing Services in Raleigh you get far MORE than that!
Everyone at Raleigh Hearing and Tinnitus Center is very helpful, and the Dr understands how to explain and differentiate between the different options available, and how they would help with your particular type of hearing impairment
Professional, did not try to sell me anything, answered my questions, helped me find solutions. What more can you ask for?!
Really nice people to work with.
Very good and personal service.
This is a great place to have your hearing checked and for treatment for tinnitus!
Thorough, professional and personable.
Ears needed cleaning.
